A Fortress Monroe correspondent writes as follows: The experiments under thie di rection of Col. T. (J. Baylor, commanding Fort Monroe Arsenal, to test the endurance of eight and twelve-inch rifled Rodman guns, pursuant to the recent recommenda tions of Secretary Btanton, have been com menced there • with determined energy to apply the proposed tests most thoroughly and to accomplish decisive results for the future guidance of the government in the use of heavy ordnance. Thus far the firing has been with the twelve-inch rifle gun, originally known as the Floyd gun, after that called the Lincoln gun, and afterwards the Union gun which name it goes by at present. This gun was cast in Pittsburgh, Pa., and is well known by the thousands who have seen it; it is a ' monster in size, weighing over twenty-six tons. The charges weigh fifty-five pounds each,and the projectiles used,known as the tiger projectile, weigh about six hun dred pounds each. Up to the present time this gun has been fired about four hundred times,’and it appears as strong as ever. It is proposed to continue the firing to' a thou sand times, unless it should explode,-or be come unserviceable before this" number of shots have been fired. In the eight-inch gun the charge weighs fifteen pounds; and ; the projectile about one hundred and fifty pounds.;The gun of this calibre to be/tested has been here several months,, and has al ready been fired some three .hundred and fifty times. It is proposed also to fire this a thousand times, if tfie gun proves equal Jo the test. The experiments will last several w eek s. These proposed tests are connected with the late iron-clad target praotice, and comprise part of a series of most interesting experiments which the government has Wisely inaugurated on the very judiciously Suspicion of.Arson,— Ayoung : man oarned Fat; O'Donald has' bees arrested oa suspicion of having fired the stable of Jacob on-Gomberiand street,Germantown, on Saturday night: last. O’Donald hac formerly been employed in the coal yard'of Mr, Tyson, and: was' 'discharged. When ibe fire was discovered, the work men went to the place where the key .of the stable was generally kept, and which was known only to those who worked in the yard, but thekey was not there. It was af-. forwards found in the stable door. The sup position, is that O’Donald took it for the pur pose of firing the stable.: He was taken be fore Aid.

The following letter from W. J. Hill, fer ryman at Owyhee, Oregon; to the Owyhee Avalanche, and published in that paper of t“e 17th ult., gives an interesting accountof. a fight between a party of. Indians, and an ?J e^ Bd - Bta^ e guard, Whioh took place on the Bth of November between. Humboldt. Utah, and the Ferry: s* ' ’ On the Bth inst, about 10 o’clock A. M.. the Humboldt stage; on its way tb Virginia, when within four miles of the Owyhee Fer ry, was attacked by Indians. There were six persons on board—Wash Waltermire. driver; James Mcßae; guard, tmd four pas sengers, named J. Holland, P, Case.vf D. Harrington and W. Wilcox. They did not suspect danger near, when they were fired into by a party of Indians, who lay con cealed among the rocks and behind a forti fication which they bad erected so as to com pletely screen themselves from the sight of those in the stage. Wash ;put his favorite mustangs down to their greatest speed, and would have succeeded in reaching the Ferry without more injury than what was caused by the first volley, but there was another party of Indians on horseback, further along, who kept shooting at them and striving to head them off and surround them, while the party that first fired at them were coming up behind. With steady nerve Wash ran his horses while Mcßae fought the red devils, and keeping them at bay for a distance of two miles, until one of the wheel horses was abet dead and two others badly wounded. This, of course, stopped the stage. When the first volley was fired, Wilcox; who was sitting on the front seat in side the coach, received his death wound by a bullet, which entered his breast near i he right nipple and passing out at his back, also striking Wash in the side, inflicting a slight though rather painful wound. Wil cox exdaimed, “Oh, my God, Fm killed,” and his head sank over and rested on Har rington's knee, where he breathed his last Harrington was shot in thelefthip, the bullet ranging up andpasslng out at his side going through some fix inches of muscle, produc ing a bad flesh wound, but it is not con sidered dangerous, When the horse fell dead the boys unhitched the other three,one of them getting away from them. They then started for the ferry, about two miles distant, leaving Wilcox dead in the stage, together with the mail, baggage, eta The Indians seemed determined to prevent their escape, and continued shooting at them; but Harrington, with great difficulty, hobbled along, and they reached the ferry about 12 o’clock, completely tired out. Four of ns from the station, with Sergeant Brown and eleven men, who are stationed here, immediately hastened to the scene of action, but the red devils had already completed their work and escaped. limy dragged Wilcox from the stage, stripped,scalped him and out his heart out; also taking with them the blankets, eta, belonging to the passen gers, and cutting the mall sack and scatter ing the letters, etc., among the sage brush. We took the body of Wilcox down to the ferry where it was decently interred by the river side. Harrington is-here and his wound is doing well. His fellow-passenger, Holland, is here slbo, taking care of him. It is a faot to be lamented that the pas sengers were not armed. They all concur in bestowing great praise upon the driver and guard, by whose presence of mind and unflinching bravery the remaining lives of all the party were, in all probability, saved. , The stage is running all night, and the in defatigable Charley Barnes, Beecher’s di vision agent, is here to-night with a new lot of horses and plenty of barley. He has men armed to the teeth running with the stage; so that, notwithstanding the recent trouble, passengers can consider themselves sb safe as at any time during the season.
